Restorative Dentistry in St. Paul, MN

If a tooth has become infected to the point that it is too weak to take a filling, Dr. Hagerman uses porcelain crowns to restore the tooth's strength and beauty. Crowns are used primarily to replace old, large, broken fillings or teeth that have been fractured or chipped. Depending on the condition and location of the tooth, Dr. Hagerman may use all-porcelain or porcelain-fused-to-metal crowns to replace the damaged tooth.

If you are missing one or more teeth, Dr. Hagerman may recommend a bridge, which is a prosthesis that spans the distance between missing teeth. He will design a porcelain or ceramic bridge to match your existing teeth and anchor it with cement to the nearby natural teeth for a seamless, natural-looking smile.

Infected teeth can be painful and cause a variety of complications. When you need endodontic treatment such as a root canal to relieve your pain and save you from more extensive gum and tooth problems down the road, you can trust Dr. Hagerman. Not only can he save your tooth, but he can also save you time and discomfort by doing it in one single office visit.
